HypoMap – A new tool to prevent hypoglycemia

At the ADA meeting next week, diabetes management software company Glooko and the Joslin Diabetes Center will launch HypoMap, a new patient-facing platform to help increase patients’ awareness of hypoglycemic events. The platform will include an app for patients with diabetes that will prompt them, after a hypoglycemic event, to record symptoms, perceived causes, and self-treatments. The platform will track logged data over time and present dynamic reports that will be viewable by the patient’s care team. It will help patients and providers identify cyclical patterns or red flags that can indicate an impending event. More information coming after the ADA Scientific Sessions next week.
